The fact is that it is not as hot in summer as, for example, in <strong>Cordoba<\/strong>  and <strong>Seville<\/strong>. Therefore, in summer, you can travel here safely, but plan so that daytime walks can be reduced. This time can be spent, for example, in the hotel or pension pool &#8211; there are many such options in Ronda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Spring and autumn<\/strong> are the perfect time to walk along the Ronda. We were there in May and it was already a bit hot. In March and April, it&#8217;s still green, with lots of water in the <strong>Guadalev\u00edn River<\/strong>. In the fall, it is almost without water after a hot summer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Spring and fall<\/strong> are also the time for <strong>festivals<\/strong> that are worth seeing, such as the <strong>Romantic<\/strong> <strong>Ronda<\/strong> in May and the <strong>Goyesca bullfight in September.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It can rain in Ronda in <strong>winter<\/strong>, but the tourist flow does not stop even at this time of year. But in winter time there are much fewer tourists, and housing prices are much cheaper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<script src=\"https:\/\/c89.travelpayouts.com\/content?currency=USD&#038;trs=21963&#038;shmarker=18026&#038;language=en&#038;locale=65896&#038;layout=horizontal&#038;cards=3&#038;powered_by=true&#038;promo_id=3947\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to see and do in Ronda<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6215-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6215-3.jpg\" alt=\"<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" class=&quot;pull-center&quot; title=&quot;Ronda Andalusia&quot; src=&quot;https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6215-3.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Ronda in Spain&quot;&gt;\" class=\"wp-image-24854\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6215-3.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6215-3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6215-3-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Ronda<\/strong> is one of the oldest cities in Spain. It was originally inhabited by the Celts and later by the Romans and Moors, and you can feel its history all around you in its cobblestone streets, old mansions, and stone churches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even though scientists have found cave paintings of ancient people dating back more than 12,000 years, the first inhabitants of Ronda are considered to be the Celts, who settled here in the 6th century BC. They called this area Arunda. Maybe that&#8217;s why this city is now called Ronda. Then, in 200 BC, the city was turned into a Roman fortress. And over the next 2+ millennia, it was <strong>Roman, Visigothic, Berber, and Christian.  <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And now it&#8217;s a city with a tourist gem. This diverse history is the reason why Ronda&#8217;s Old Town is so wonderful, with ancient monuments on every corner. There are also great <strong>restaurants<\/strong>, <strong>picturesque<\/strong> <strong>places<\/strong> to enjoy a beer on the terrace. It&#8217;s very exciting, really.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1.Ponta Nuevo Bridge<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSCF2466.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSCF2466.jpg\" alt=\"<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=&quot;pull-center&quot; title=&quot;Ronda Andalusia&quot; src=&quot;https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSCF2466.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Ronda in Spain&quot;&gt;\" class=\"wp-image-24556\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSCF2466.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSCF2466-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSCF2466-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Ponta Nuevo Bridge<\/strong> is Ronda&#8217;s visiting card. It appears in almost all the photos and postcards advertising the city. Puente Nuevo translates as &#8220;new bridge&#8221; &#8211; it was built for over 42 years and completed in 1793.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Ponta Nuevo Bridge<\/strong> is one of many in Ronda, but very impressive. The observation decks over a 100-meter gorge where the <strong>Guadalev\u00edn<\/strong> <strong>River<\/strong> flows. In the spring, the river under the bridge turns into a real waterfall, and in the summer it turns into a stream due to the heat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was the river that over millions of years cut through the gorge that separates the old Arab neighborhoods of the Medina from the <strong>New Mercadillo<\/strong> (Small Market) district of Ronda.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSCF2401.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSCF2401.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24557\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSCF2401.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSCF2401-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSCF2401-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This bridge offers an unforgettable view of El Tajo Gorge.

This is one of the hotels of the Parador, which are located in all the famous cities of Spain and in ancient palaces and even monasteries.

You can admire the bridge from different angles and sides:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Go down a few steps and walk along a sandy path for about 10 minutes to see the bridge from a stunning viewing angle<a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/ZRZS5erygcaZ1Frr6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">(this is the place<\/a>). From this place you can also see a beautiful waterfall under the bridge.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2. Take a look at the Porte Nuovo Bridge from the free <strong>Jardines De Cuenca<\/strong> garden &#8211; it&#8217;s a different view of the bridge, and it&#8217;s also nice to wander through the <strong>gardens<\/strong> where roses bloom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">3. Or the<strong> Mirador de Aldehuela<\/strong> observation deck, which you have to walk through the entire Moorish part of the Old Town and bypass <strong>along the Ctra. de los Molinos.<\/strong>  There is a very nice view of the bridge, by the way, if you don&#8217;t have time or desire to walk here on foot, you can take a taxi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4. If you have more time, go down to the gorge along the <strong>Camino de Los Molinos<\/strong>. The views from here are also the best. In spring, the whole valley is covered with flowers. Entrance fee: 2,50\u20ac<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2.The square and the Church <strong>del Socorro<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6254.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6254.jpg\" alt=\"<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" class=&quot;pull-center&quot; title=&quot;Ronda Andalusia&quot; src=&quot;https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6254.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Ronda in Spain&quot;&gt;\" class=\"wp-image-24846\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6254.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6254-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6254-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Until 1981, <strong>Plaza del Socorro<\/strong> was named after dictator Franco. Today it is a nice and cozy square in the new part of Ronda surrounded by beautiful houses. It&#8217;s a great place to have a morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While you sitting in the cafe, you can admire the white and yellow facade of the church <strong>Iglesia del Socorro<\/strong>. In the center of the square, there is a fountain with the Coat of Arms of Andalusia. This fountain is a gathering place for tourist groups during the day. And in the evening it is nice to sit on warm stone benches near the cool fountain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-garden-jardines-de-cuenca\"><strong>3.Garden Jardines De Cuenca<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6270-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6270-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24851\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6270-2.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6270-2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6270-2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Directly on one side of the cliff, on various ledges of Tajo Canyon, you will find the <strong>Jardines de Cuenca (Cuenca Gardens<\/strong>). The gardens were dedicated to Ronda&#8217;s sister city, <strong>Cuenca<\/strong> (<strong>Ecuador<\/strong>). They have similar geographical locations, albeit on different continents. Stroll through the beautiful rose gardens, admiring the fantastic views of all three bridges and the valley of the river flowing below, hiding in the shade between the rocks.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Garden opening hours:<\/strong> daily from 8:00 to 22:00, free admission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-felipe-v-arch\"><strong>4.Felipe V Arch<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSCF2430.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSCF2430.jpg\" alt=\"<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=&quot;pull-center&quot; title=&quot;Ronda Andalusia&quot; src=&quot;https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSCF2430.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Ronda in Spain&quot;&gt;\" class=\"wp-image-24833\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSCF2430.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSCF2430-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSCF2430-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Felipe V Arch <\/strong>is located directly next to the Jardines de Cuenca. This is a stone arch that is part of the city walls of Ronda. The arch was named after Felipe V, the first Bourbon king of Spain. This happened because he helped to restore the Spanish economy after the War of Succession in the 18th century.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From here you get to the <strong>La Ciudad<\/strong> district, the oldest and most beautiful part of the city, which offers spectacular views of the surrounding landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-la-casa-del-rey-moro\"><strong>5.La Casa del Rey Moro<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6264-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"650\" src=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6264-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24845\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6264-2.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6264-2-300x190.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6264-2-768x488.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the other side of the cliff, opposite the Jardines de Cuenca, there is a beautiful estate overlooking the valley. This is the house of the Moorish king &#8211; <strong>La Casa del Rey Moro<\/strong>. The grounds of this estate consist of hanging gardens with a couple of fountains. Peacocks feel very good here, roaming freely in the garden of La Casa del Rey Moro.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite its name, this legendary palace was never actually home to a Moorish king. In fact, the only real relic the house has from the Moorish occupation is a 14th-century underground water mine. You can also visit it.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Opening hours:<\/strong> Monday through Sunday from 10:00 to 21:30.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>6.Arabian baths<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6267-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6267-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24850\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6267-2.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6267-2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6267-2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Arab baths in Ronda<\/strong> are located in the old Jewish quarter. Despite their extraordinary architectural designs, they were abandoned (Christian morality did not allow certain practices of body purification). Frequent flooding of the Guadalupe River eventually buried them under layers of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Modern excavations have allowed us to see these unique structures again. Three baths are now open &#8211; a cold, warm, and hot bath with barrel-vaulted roofs and star-shaped skylights connected by arches. Boilers and water transportation systems have also been partially preserved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Arabian Baths in Ronda are the largest and best preserved on the Iberian Peninsula.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>7.The old Moorish city<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6301.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6301.jpg\" alt=\"<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" class=&quot;pull-center&quot; title=&quot;Ronda Andalusia&quot; src=&quot;https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6301.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Ronda in Spain&quot;&gt;\" class=\"wp-image-24852\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6301.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6301-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6301-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A quiet stroll along the Ronda is a good idea if you do it in the morning or after siesta in the evening (if you come here in the summer). This way you can appreciate every detail of the city center, and there are a lot of these details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of course, it is necessary to visit the <strong>Plaza de la Duquesa de Parcent<\/strong>, located in the Old Town, where the <strong>Real Colegiata de Santa Mar\u00eda de la Encarnaci\u00f3n la Mayor<\/strong> stands out, as well as to see the City Hall with its magnificent double arched facade. The square is closed by the <strong>Santa Isabel de los Angeles<\/strong> <strong>Monastery<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Find the church of <strong>Santa Maria la Major<\/strong> &#8211; during the Moorish period it was the largest mosque in the former Medina. Before it was a Roman temple.

In 1815, Goya created a series of engravings called <strong>Tauromachia<\/strong>, which became the source of inspiration for the style and concept of this bullfight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6245.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6245.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24843\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6245.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6245-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6245-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By the way, this year the <strong>Bullring of the Royal Cavalry<strong> <\/strong>in Ronda turns 450 years old, a jubilee year<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6223.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6223.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24844\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6223.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6223-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6223-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>In the first week of September<\/strong>, Ronda celebrates <strong>Pedro Romero&#8217;s feria<\/strong>.

The tapas culture in Andalusia is very developed &#8211; there is a wide variety of snacks, and sometimes it is impossible to stop &#8211; you want to try everything!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Tapas<\/strong> &#8211; (translated as a lid), Spanish appetizers that are added to a glass of wine or beer. Sometimes tapas is included in the price of this glass. But more often than not, it&#8217;s individual small sandwiches, small portions of salad, fried seafood or rolls with it, fried potato croquettes with jamon, and many different others.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After or while walking around and visiting palaces and museums, you will definitely feel hungry. But Ronda is a great place to satisfy it in tapas bars. The city has a great gastronomic tradition, especially about jamon and incredibly tasty tomatoes. They are huge and very crooked, but so sweet &#8211; I ate them only in my childhood. At Ronda, they even display tomatoes on the bar &#8211; it&#8217;s a source of pride and a sign that you can order the <strong>Tomate ali\u00f1ado<\/strong> salad, which is sliced tomatoes drizzled with a delicious balsamic sauce and marinated anchovies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ronda has its own street with many restaurants &#8211; <strong>Calle Nueva<\/strong>. There are purely tourist pizzerias, as well as good taverns.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We lived nearby, on a street with tapas bars called C. Virgen de los Remedios. There are many good places to eat and experience the atmosphere of such establishments:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Bodeguita El Coto<\/strong> &#8211; good prices, delicious tapas and beer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Taperia La Flamenka<\/strong> is our favorite taproom, where the food is delicious, inexpensive, and friendly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>La Abacer\u00eda Ronda <\/strong>&#8211; was under the windows of our room, it&#8217;s always fun in the evenings.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Los Caracoles <\/strong>is the best tapas bar in Ronda, where you should try their specialty &#8211;<strong> snails (caracoles)<\/strong>, and the restaurant is named after them.  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Festivals in Ronda<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6444.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6444.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24872\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6444.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6444-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6444-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We didn&#8217;t plan to go to any festival, and even I hadn&#8217;t heard of Ronda&#8217;s fiestas. But we were very lucky to see one of the most famous festivals, <strong>Ronda Romantica<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During this fiesta in Ronda, you can enjoy parades. During Ronda Rom\u00e1ntica, residents and visitors of the city dress in typical costumes of the Romantic era &#8211; the 18th century of Napoleon&#8217;s time. There are also performances on horseback, which dance together with flamenco riders.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6491.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6491.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24873\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6491.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6491-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6491-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I was impressed by the fact that every year local people take part in the festival. And they make their costumes-not for tourists, but primarily for themselves. And they enjoy the process, from parading through the city to a party near the fortress, where they enjoy listening to music, drinking wine and beer, and dancing in the streets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where to stay in Ronda<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6258.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6258.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24874\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6258.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6258-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.journeys6senses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_6258-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I recommend staying in Ronda for two nights.

Or fly with cheap tickets to <strong>Madrid <\/strong>and from there you can get by car or train to Malaga, from there you can get to Ronda<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What you will need to travel to Andalusia<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The first of all you need a <strong>car<\/strong> that will help you drive this entire route, and maybe more, across Spain in a week. <strong>Rent a car<\/strong> right after your arrival and travel the beautiful roads of this country. By the way, expressways are tolled, with the same payment system as in Italy. That is, before entering the toll road, you take a ticket in front of the barrier, and at the exit, you pay for the kilometers you have traveled.
